MP3: Dead Confederate live on WFNX

Rock n roll is way out of fashion these days, but Georgia's DEAD CONFEDERATE have that early-'90s lost-boys-burning-shit-in-the-woods thing on lockdown. Not that this will help you decide whether to listen to 'em, but they sound to us like someone rolled up all of Verbena's records into a single ball of fire. And DC also got that uncanny Nrrrrvana-ish ability to claw you to death with power chords, then rip your heart to shreds with the ol' acoustic guitar. They're capable of doing their single, "The Rat," either way -- this morning they played it acoustic on WFNX, and tonight they'll likely rip it closer to the album version when they open for the Whigs at the Paradise Rock Club up on Comm Ave. Check it:
